Why is the status and strength of snake-shaped Jackie Chan far greater than that of carp-shaped dragon?

According to myths and legends, carp jumping over the dragon gate can turn dragons, and snakes can turn dragons, so what's the difference between them?

As the most common creature in ancient China mythology, there are indeed many kinds of dragons. Even though they all call it that. Dragon? But evolutionary archetypes and symbols have different meanings. Let's answer this question well.

First of all, let's introduce the most basic in China. Dragon culture? Dragon culture is the most representative traditional culture of Han nationality and even East Asian nationalities. In China, dragons have the ability to sow clouds and rain for the benefit of scale worms, and are regarded as the representative of strength and auspiciousness. It can exorcise evil spirits and avoid disasters. At the same time, the emperors in ancient China regarded themselves as dragons, which shows their high status.

Although the dragon is the length of a scale worm, it is controversial to mention its appearance, but what is the most basic image of the dragon? Does nine look like it? With the appearance of nine kinds of animals, their thickness and length are different according to different species. They can show and hide in the sky, and they can do anything in the sky and the ocean. Dragon and phoenix, turtle and * * * together? Four spirits? , which is what we call Qinglong, Fenghuang, Suzaku and Xuanwu.

Speaking of Qinglong, is it also called Qinglong? Black dragon? , is a kind of dragon. The relationship between ichthyosaur and snake dragon in our question is a complex, and its image is the most representative dragon in our East, which frequently appears in cultural works, so Qinglong is also called Qinglong in the West. Oriental Qinglong? .

So what happened to the carp, ichthyosaur and snake dragon mentioned in the question?

The so-called carp ichthyosaur, as its name implies, is a dragon evolved from carp, and so is snake dragon, but the status between them is not an order of magnitude. Let's start with this ichthyosaur. This kind of dragon should be the lowest among all kinds of dragons. There are many myths and legends. For example, when four disciples passed by in Journey to the West, the Monkey King used white? Horse urine? The pills cured the king's chronic disease. What about pig bajie Bai? Horse urine? , white said:

If I pee in the water, I will swim in the water and eat Jackie Chan. Pee over the mountain, the grass in the mountain tastes good, turn it into ganoderma lucidum, and the fairy boy picks it to prolong life. How can I give up in this secular place? ?

As the prince of Xihailong, Xiaobailong is a purebred dragon. Xiaobailong said that if he urinates in the water, the fish in the water will turn into Jackie Chan, which shows that Yu Hualong's position among dragons is really inferior.

These words are used by people with their own ambitions to describe themselves. Carp yue longmen has been a yearning for success for every family since ancient times. It has gradually become a custom, and because of this, ichthyosaurs have gradually lost their original meaning.

Besides, this snake-like dragon is different. Serpentine dragon is a very difficult process, and its final form is Ying Long. Ying Long is a very advanced dragon, also known as Huanglong. It is the only dragon with wings on its back among all dragons. Ying Long is located in the center of the Five Elements. Now, much thunder and little rain, but not all snakes can evolve from such a powerful dragon.

What was a snake originally? Hey? Practice for 500 years? Jiao? ,? Jiao? Millennium? Ceratosaurus (white is like this)? It will take another thousand years for Ceratosaurus to become? Ying Long? . Ying Long is a real dragon that can be compared with Candle dragon and Qinglong, and it is a higher level dragon than Bai. So, on Jackie Chan's way, I don't know how many snakes died halfway.

Speaking of Ying Long, there is such a story:

At the beginning, there was a war between the tribes in the Yellow River valley headed by the Yellow Emperor and the tribes in the Yangtze River valley headed by Chiyou. Both sides did their best, and Ying Long was the general under the Yellow Emperor. What is Ying Long good at? Store water? The Chiyou side is also good at giving orders, and its ability is even better than that of Ying Long, and the rainstorm is about to drown the Yellow Emperor's army.

The yellow emperor refused to sit still because of his weakness, so he invited the goddess? Hey? Helped stop the heavy rain and wiped out the Chiyou tribe in one fell swoop. Ying Long killed Chiyou and Kuafu in the war. Due to the great loss of the war, Ying Long's remaining divine power could no longer fly back to heaven, so he quietly came to the south and lived in Shanze and South. Time has changed, and in a blink of an eye, it is the Dayu era, with floods and countless lives. Dayu shouldered the heavy responsibility of saving lives, and Ying Long came to help, sweeping the floor with his tail between his legs, saving the lives of hundreds of millions of people again.

Having said that, you should be able to understand that there is a huge difference between this fish-shaped dragon and the snake-shaped dragon. Whether it is the hardships in the process of making a positive result or the superb skills and abilities, the snake-shaped dragon far exceeds the fish-shaped dragon. But in the final analysis, these things are also recorded in fairy tales. It's hard to say whether dragons really exist or ever existed.

But since the ancestors regarded the dragon as one of the twelve zodiac signs, it is by no means groundless. Perhaps in the near future, a major archaeological discovery will make dragons really appear.
